The Lee County 4-H Foundation is gearing up for one of its most popular community events of the year \u2014 the annual Family Fishing Tournament Fundraiser on May 2, at Mike Greenwell Regional Park.<\/p>\n
Anglers of all ages and skill levels are invited to compete in this family-friendly tournament, with all proceeds supporting scholarships for local youth and funding 4-H programs throughout Lee County. You do not need to be a 4-H member to participate \u2014 just bring your gear and get ready to fish.<\/p>\n
